This song is by Annuals (uneditable Gracenote version).
A son will get sick, a father will watch as life has left
From his boy, helpless
Hours still go by, like strangers
Quick to close an eye but dear father just won't die
What debt has my boy to pay?
What crime has been to deserve this fate?
Lord, what debt has my boy to pay?
It's this weight you gave my baby's grave
Night does not sleep for father
He's fighting to find some peace
Where he lives, his son has died
He stares at his wife, the woman
Who held his boy inside but why? Oh, God, why?
Lord, how can I tell her it's okay?
What words I know can dry her face
Dear Lord, how could you take him in this way?
It's this weight you gave my baby's grave
